Why it was refused

  1. The proposed use would have a significant adverse impact upon the amenity and wellbeing of future occupiers due to the location of the shared bathroom at first floor accessed via the shared kitchen by occupant of the rear bedroom, and the location of the ground floor rear bedroom adjacent the communal kitchen contrary to the aims of Policies GP2 and H8 of the Newport Local Development Plan 2011 - 2026 (Adopted January 2015).

From the council's decision notice.
